This Is Why Chicago Bears Fans Were Chanting "Green Bay Sucks" During Injury Timeout

Atlanta Falcons rookie linebacker Kendal Daniels suffered a scary neck injury after his head made contact with Bears tight end Colston Loveland's left knee during a tackle. He was carted off the field and rushed to Grady Memorial Hospital for further evaluation. Fortunately, he was released from the hospital the same day and was back in the Falcons' locker room after the game.

A Packers fan decked out in green and gold gear was apparently egging on the Bears fans around him, sparking the chants that were captured on the Fox broadcast. Bears fans were directing the chant at that specific Packers fan rather than filling dead air during the scary injury timeout.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium was packed with Bears fans to the point that Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski admitted Atlanta had to use a silent count despite playing at home.

The chants have gone viral over the past year as the Bears exorcised their demons against the Packers, culminating in an incredible playoff comeback win at Soldier Field. Cubs and White Sox fans have also each made the chant part of their respective stadium experiences.

Yes, a similar event happened at Wrigley Field during the summer when a fan in the outfield bleachers started waving a Packers flag, prompting Bears fans to respond with the same chant.
